PlayStation 5, which includes the Pro variant, as well as the PlayStation Portal remote console (although the company has not disclosed pricing updates for the PlayStation Portal at this time). All the price increases are set to take effect on April 2, and Sony emphasizes that these are merely the suggested prices, so retailers might offer the consoles at different rates.
Sony announced the adjustments in a blog entry, mentioning that the standard PlayStation 5 will rise from $549.99 to $649.99, a $100 increase, while the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition will jump from $499.99 to $599.99. Concerning the more advanced PlayStation 5 Pro, Sony is significantly increasing the price, elevating it from the quoted $749.99 to $899.99.
Sony last increased the prices of the PlayStation 5 in August 2025, so it has barely been a year since the previous adjustment, which was just a $50 rise in most instances. This isn’t the first time gamers have noticed recent price hikes, as Nintendo recently revealed substantial changes to its pricing for Switch 2 games. Regarding the reasons behind these increases, Sony cites the “global economic landscape.”
